Oh Emma CONGRATULATIONS!!! (used to be MissingMyHeels)

Lovely, lovely name. How was the birth? When did you have her? If I remember correctly she has made her appearance a little early.

Yes it's normal to be too tired to think!

just a quick question, she has been sleeping/waking every 3 hours, but has is staying awake longer and sleeping less now, is this normal?
Contact the poster See this person's profile Contact mumsnet about this post By BarbieLovesKen on Fri 05-Sep-08 14:30:49
Completely normal!! (well was for us anyway!) She is just becoming more "alert" I would imagine and from my experience all babies sleep alot more at the beginning after the big trauma of being born (tis hard work smile

She is absolutely beautiful!! congratulations pet xx

Yes they become more alert - as if they are getting over the shock of it all smile If you are BFing it may also have something to do with the change from colostrum to milk at about day 3. I hope she is doing well smile

Congratulatons! Oh yes so tired your eyes droop when feeding, ah fond memories.

Some hormone partic during feeding, it'll pass and settle into a (barely) acceptable level of eternal tiredness

Message
Emphasis: To bold a word, surround it with asterisks, so *hello* will display hello. For underline use _ , so _hello_ gives hello. For italics use ^, so ^hello^ gives hello. To strike out a word, surround it with two hyphens either side, so --dog-- gives dog

Links and smileys: To insert a smiley face, , type [smile] or :)
For a big grin, , type [grin] or :o
For a wink, , type [wink]

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
